A la fecha, en el marco de los programas temáticos, se han aprobado 79 proyectos para su financiación: 29 relacionados con el programa TFLET, 31 del programa REDDES, 5 a través del programa CFME y 14 en relación con el programa TMT.

Llamados a propuestas para los programas temáticos Durante el período en estudio, no se lanzaron nuevos llamados a propuestas debido a la falta de financiación. El último llamado a propuestas para los programas temáticos fue el 5o ciclo del programa TMT, cuyo lanzamiento se produjo en noviembre de 2014. 4. Logros, impacto y enseñanzas aprendidas A continuación, se presenta un resumen de los principales logros de los proyectos finalizados durante el período en estudio y los que están por concluir (para más información remitirse al Anexo II). Los proyectos que fueron declarados finalizados en períodos de sesiones anteriores del Consejo y los proyectos caducados no se incluyen en el Anexo II. Asimismo, es posible obtener información detallada sobre todos los proyectos, inclusive los documentos de los proyectos, los informes finales, los informes técnicos, los informe de las evaluaciones ex-post y otros materiales producidos a través de los proyectos (p.ej. volantes, afiches o folletos) en el buscador de proyectos en línea de la OIMT, que se encuentra disponible en: http://www.itto.int/project_search/. Los documentos se publican en línea a medida que se encuentran disponibles (en el idioma original en que fueron presentados). ITTC(LII)/8 página 4 TFLET Durante el período en estudio se finalizaron dos proyectos en el marco del programa TFLET: 1) TFL-PD 003/09 Rev.2 (M): “Mejorar la gobernanza y transparencia de las operaciones de extracción y comercio de Camerún”; y 2) TFL-PD 024/10 Rev.3 (M): “Fortalecimiento de las capacidades institucionales para mejorar la observancia de la ley y la gobernanza forestal en Guatemala”. A través del proyecto TFL-PD 003/09 Rev.2 (M), se llevaron a cabo ejercicios de desarrollo de capacidades y una serie de estudios para mejorar la observancia de la legislación forestal. Un logro importante del proyecto fue que se creó una oportunidad para la colaboración entre la autoridad forestal (MINFOF), la autoridad de hacienda (MINFI, Aduana y Departamento Fiscal), la autoridad judicial (MINJUSTICE, juzgados) y la administración de las fuerzas armadas (MIDEF, Policía y Gendarmería) en la lucha contra la tala ilegal y el comercio conexo en Camerún.

On 30 July, Cyclone Komen made landfall in Bangladesh, bringing strong winds and additional heavy rains to the country, which resulted in widespread flooding across 12 of the country’s 14 states and regions (Ayeyarwady, Bago, Chin, Kachin, Kayin, Magway, Mandalay, Mon, Rakhine, Sagaing, Shan,and Yangon). 2018 is also remarkable year for natural disaster, flooding in central and lower Myanmar. Bago Region is mostly affected by flooding yearly. It is located in the southern central part of Myanmar. Vulnerability Factors concerning natural disaster in Bago Region will be studied from the geoprocessing point of view such as surface feature and spatial analysis of natural and human phenomena. The region is located among Bago Yoma, Kachin Hill and Rakhine Yoma. The eastern and western parts of Bago Yoma are the flat land area, the farm land.

  • Preparatory Survey for the Project for Rehabilitation of Irrigation Systems
    IRRIGATION DEPARTMENT MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE AND IRRIGATION THE REPUBLIC OF THE UNION OF MYANMAR PREPARATORY SURVEY FOR THE PROJECT FOR REHABILITATION OF IRRIGATION SYSTEMS FINAL REPORT (MAIN) AUGUST 2014 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY (JICA) SANYU CONSULTANTS INC., JAPAN RD CR (1) 14-067 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Executive Summary PREFACE 0.1 Submitted herewith is the final report prepared based on the Minutes of Discussions (MD) on ‘the Project for Rehabilitation of Irrigation System (the Project)’ signed on August 1, 2012 by and between Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the Irrigation Department (ID), Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation (MOAI). A technical assistance team organized by JICA headquarters commenced a series of surveys for the Project from March 18, 2013, and this report presents all those survey results together with the plan including rehabilitation components, work volume, cost estimation, project evaluation, etc. for the Project. In addition, this Report delivers the work results for a model farmland consolidation pilot project implemented in Nay Pyi Taw. PART I REHABILITATION OF IRRIGATION SYSTEMS I.1 RATIONALE AND GOAL OF THE PROJECT 1.1 The Project targets 4 irrigation systems located in two districts of Pyay and Thayarwaddy. Irrigation systems in Pyay and Thayarwaddy districts were firstly planned in “Irrawaddy Development Master Plan, 1980”, and its project implementation was commenced from 1980. The area is located at a western part of Bago Yoma (mountain range) and rainfall in the area is rather limited because humid air coming from southern side generates rain just at Bago Yoma, not at the area around. This is one of the major reasons why the irrigation projects were planned and implemented in the area and such irrigation projects have been playing important roles in agriculture sector to secure stable farming.
